The new visible changes coming to the Google search bar

Google is reshaping its search bar for its mobile site and it will now appear more rounded, much like the search bar on the Pixel launcher.

Amongst other changes, we will see a colorful ‘G’ logo on the left and the search icon will no longer be highlighted in a blue square.

Further, the category options below the search bar, will not be boxed.

A redesigned and repositioned Address bar

Interestingly, Google is also testing a new rounded address bar which will be placed on the bottom of the screen. The position of the address bar is likely to offer easy accessibility to users with taller-screen smartphones.

The new redesigned search and address bars and other changes do seem to align with the rounded design elements of Android P.
